This paper deals with characteristic analysis and experiments on components of low-Tc(LTS) power supply. A LTS power supply consists of two exciters, a rotor, a stator, and an LTS magnet. The power supply has eight rotating poles, which make rotational magnetic flux. These flux penetrate superconducting sheets and cause currents which charge an LTS load. In this experiment, a 25.8mH LTS magnet was used, and rotor revolutions from 30 to 300rpm were used. In order to measure the pumping-current with respect to the magnet flux changes, a hall sensor was installed at the center of the LTS magnet. The experimental observations have been compared with the theoretical predictions. In this experiment, the pumping-current has reached about 372A.

Magnetic field distribution of rotating flux type Low-Tc superconducting (LTS) power supply with respect to the applied current on exciters is investigated in detail by using Finite Element Method (FEM). LTS power supply consists of two exciters, a rotor, a stator and superconductor foil attached to the inner surface of the stator and LTS load. The current pumping of LTS power supply is induced by partial-quenching and recovery of superconductor foil. For this reason, magnetic flux density on superconductor foil must be sufficiently greater than the its critical magnetic density. In this analysis, the normal spot on superconductor foil appears more than 10A of excitation current. The results of this analysis are calculated and compared with the experimental results.

In this paper, 3-D magnetostatic finite element simulation of a rotux type Low-Tc superconducing (LTS) superconducting power supply, finite element method, cryogenic system, superconducting foil by generated magnetic flux from the rotating pole. The magnetic flux density on the superconducting foil caused by two exciters is therefore sufficiently greater than its critical magnetic flux density and it is an essential point in LTS power supply design. To establish the sufficient flux path of this machine, ferromagnetic materials is used in this power supply. When ferromagnetic materials is used at extremely low temperature, its characteristic of magnetization differs to that at room temperature. For this reason, special consideration is needed in the magnetic analysis of cryogenic systems. When the excitation current is 10A, the normal spot appears on superconducting foil. The results of this analysis are calculated and compared with the experimental results. The linkage flux due to the excitation current of 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50A are respectively $1.30{\times}10-4$, $2.67{\times}10-4$, $5.08{\times}10-4$ and $6.15{\times}10-4Wb$.

This paper deals with comparison of characteristics of continuous-sheet type low-Tc superconducting (LTS) power supply and discrete-sheet type LTS power supply. These characteristics have been analyzed through experiments. These power supplies consist of two exciters, a rotor, a stator, and a LTS load. A continuous-sheet type has a single continuous niobium (Nb) sheet attached to the inner surface of on the stator. In the case of discrete-sheet type, four separated Nb sheets are used. this experiment is using 1.81 mH LTS magnet load and maximum 30 A dc exciter current. A discrete-sheet type is expected to produce much better pumping rate than a continuous-sheet type. The experimental observations have been compared with the theoretical predictions. In this experiment, the maximum pumping-current has reached about 926 A.
